Oh, didn’t realize it was happening in Northern Cyprus! I thought it was just in the Republic of Cyprus because the North doesn’t exist!

dated September 3rd 2023 - titled - ‘Marks Art offer is a second - stage scam’ and 7th May 2024 - titled ‘Elderly Father duped into 25K Debt by scam company Marks Art Tony Hetherington finds culprit in Cyprus’
The articles relate to a person named Mark Smith aka Marks Art living in Incesu, Near Alsancak who is allegedly scamming people by cold calling offering investment in Art. - search Mail on Sunday then Tony Hetherington scroll down to the above dates.

This person is also on the run from UK Police having been sentenced in his absence to Four Years in Jail for a road rage incident. Very interesting reading. There is also a picture of this thug in case you know him!

tutor4u,
Thanks for adding the link.
The more the residents of TRNC know about these thugs and conmen the better.
Hopefully it won’t be long before The local Police accompanied by Surrey Police go knocking at his door.
